Buyers want to know what a Seller paid for an aircraft of interest so they can better negotiate a low purchase price. The Seller on the other hand keeps this information from the Buyer in order to negotiate a higher purchase price. Now, since there is no governing authority that requires disclosure of the Sales Data, it is up to third parties like Aviongoo.com, Amstat and Jetnet to research and archive such records.
Database services like Aviongoo, Amstat and Jetnet provide their information on a paid subscriber basis. Aviongoo provides it to anybody who pays the fee. Amstat & Jetnet only provide service to aircraft dealer subscribers. Aviongoo charges just $10 per month and Amstat or Jetnet charge an average of $1,000 per month for their data. The process of researching and archiving Sales Data and all the other information that goes into modern aircraft databases is expensive and time consuming. Much can be done electronically as is done by aviongoo.com with significant effectiveness and economy. However, Sales Data such as Selling Price, True Owner Identity and Location, Loan Details and more, currently requires mostly human effort at a high cost per data element.
Aviongoo.com routinely tracks 8,000 to 10,000 aircraft on the advertised market at any one time. Once those aircraft appear on the listing sites, Aviongoo creates a record and provides a report through the registration of the aircraft. Currently only US Registered aircraft are reported, but Aviongoo will be providing Non-US Registered aircraft reports in the near future. But, in the mean time a subscriber who pays a small fee to Aviongoo can track the advertised and ownership history of any aircraft that has been advertised for sale in the last four years having some sort of registration. That's not bad for the small fee charged by Aviongoo. The Amstat & Jetnet models on the other hand offer significantly more Sales Data on a universe of about 20,000 aircraft world wide at a subscription, but at a significantly higher cost to their dealer only subscribers. For the record there are over 350,000 aircraft in the US and a little under One Million world wide. The Avoiongoo database is growing daily and currently approaching 100,000 aircraft. That is a lot of Registrations, Total Times, Serial Numbers
Aviongoo offers Buyers, Sellers and third parties lots of valuable information at a very low price. Anybody planning to Buy or Sell an aircraft should be an Aviongoo subscriber, at least for the time they are in the market to Buy or Sell. Third parties who dabble or make their living in the aircraft market need to be Aviongoo subscribers since the information is timely and on target for their markets.
